BRIX On-Premises / Prepare infrastructure

Prepare infrastructure

An infrastructure is a set of components necessary for operation of the BRIX application. Depending on the objectives, the approaches and requirements for organizing an BRIX On-Premises infrastructure differ.

Let’s take a look at the following infrastructure organization options:

  • Infrastructure for familiarization.
  • Development/test environment infrastructures.
  • Production environment infrastructures.
  • High availability production environment infrastructures.

Infrastructure for familiarization

This infrastructure organization option is suitable for familiarization purposes and does not require high reliability of storage components.

  1. Environment with Internet access.

infrastructure-preparation-1

Characteristics:

  • One physical server or virtual machine.
  • Installation with Internet access.
  • Embedded data storage components.

For more information on how to deploy this type of infrastructure, see Install BRIX Standard.

  1. Environment without Internet access.

infrastructure-preparation-2

Characteristics:

  • One physical server or virtual machine for all components.
  • Installation without Internet access.
  • Embedded Kubernetes image storage.
  • Embedded data storage components.

For more information on how to deploy this type of infrastructure, see Install BRIX Standard offline.

Development/test environment infrastructures

This infrastructure organization option is suitable for development and test environments and does not require the increased reliability of storage components.

  1. Environment with Internet access.

infrastructure-preparation-3

Characteristics:

  • One physical server or virtual machine for all components.
  • Installation with Internet access.
  • Embedded storage data components.

For more information on how to deploy this type of infrastructure, see Install BRIX Standard.
